PPA's Perennial Plant of the Year

From time to time we our gardening friends asks us how the Perennial Plant of the Year  is selected?" The selection process is quite simple – Perennial Plant Association members vote for the Perennial of the Year.  In addition to their vote, each member nominates plants for future consideration. The Perennial Plant of the Year Committee reviews the nominated perennials and selects 3 to 4 plants to be placed on the ballot.
